Impact of Foreign Direct Investments on Domestic Investments in Nigeria

Anionwu, Carol "Impact of Foreign Direct Investments on Domestic Investments in Nigeria" Published in International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development (ijtsrd), ISSN: 2456-6470, Volume-3 | Issue-5, August 2019, pp.1403-1410, URL: https://www.ijtsrd.com/papers/ijtsrd26725.pdf

This study examines the impact of foreign direct investments on domestic investments in Nigeria. Specifically, the study seeks to ascertain the effect of foreign direct investment, per capita income, consumption expenditure, savings and debt burden on domestic investments in Nigeria using an inferential statistic like the regression analysis after determining stationarity of the variables using the ADF Statistic, as well as the cointegration of variables using the Johansen approach. Findings revealed that foreign direct investment, per capita income, consumption expenditure, savings, interest rate and debt burden are statistically significant in explaining domestic investment in Nigeria. The F-test conducted in the study shows that the model has a goodness of fit and is statistically different from zero. In other words, there is a significant impact between the dependent and independent variables in the model. The study therefore recommends that: There is need for government to formulate investment policies that will be favourable to local investors in order to complement the inflow of investment from abroad. Government should provide adequate infrastructure and policy framework that will be conducive for doing business in Nigeria, so as to attract the inflow of FDI. Policies that would improve per capita income of Nigeria should be pursued as this will stabilize and accelerate the rate of investment in Nigeria.
